14 — Heartache to Healing: Powerful Strategies for Working Through Grief with Author Karen Allen

Karen Allen's husband was murdered 10 years ago when their son was just two years old. Over the last decade, Karen has learned to work through her grief despite the murder remaining unsolved.

She transformed her life, took on a new career, moved to a new city, and wrote a book called Stop and Shift. Now, she's talking about her experience and how she learned the small shifts that can make a big difference in life.

Some of the things she talks about are the strategies she used to deal with unhelpful thoughts, how she manages uncomfortable feelings, and the steps she took to work through her grief so she could heal.
